James W Blackstone does not have an adequate amount of comments to generate the sentiment analysis.
Dr. Blackstone has done cataract surgery on my brother and sister-in-law and on one of my eyes, with great success. I'm about to schedule the next surgery. Very pleased with the results.
Good doctor
Dr. Blackstone was very thorough in his exam. This morning I could see very clearly. He did a good and I appreciate it very much. Thanks again.
I love and absolutely trust Dr. Blackstone. He and his staff are attentive, courteous, and professional. He has helped me deal with Sjogren's and other immune disorders and has been so sweet about it. I have recommended him to my friends and family and will continue to do so.
Dr. Blackstone is always prompt and courteous. He is very thorough and his staff is very professional. I would highly recommend him to my friends.
Dr. Blackstone was professional and thorough in his exam. He addressed my concerns and fully explained my diagnosis and treatment plan.
Gave me the wrong prescription. Apologized. OK, everyone makes mistakes. But also, did not take the time to put dye in my eye to see that the redness in my eye (the actual reason I came to him) was from an ulcer. NO test for reason for redness, just , " Go away, it'll probably get better." This after 3 visits and 6 months! My Vet puts dye in my dog's eye to check for ulcers!. Fortunately, a different doctor, found it. He told me I almost LOST MY EYE! (not sight!) Then, to add insult Dr. Blackstone insisted on getting his full payment for his bundling! Milking my insurance company and my co-pay! Find someone else!
Dr Blackstone took over a thriving practice but he lacks professionalism and a caring manner. I took my disabled sister to him for her annual exam. He dilated her pupils before finishing the exam and told her to come back so he could finish it at a later date. I don't understand how a doctor would dilate at any time but at the end of an exam. He didn't care that making another trip to his office was going to be extremely difficult due to my sister's mobility difficulties. The waiting room was standing room only and running behind schedule.
If you like rude, arrogant, egotistical people; Dr. Blackstone is most certainly your guy to see.
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
